Dacia, renowned for offering exceptional value for money in the automotive industry, is set to revolutionise the UK electric car market with the highly anticipated arrival of the Dacia Spring later this year. Building on its success in Europe, the Dacia Spring promises to be a game-changer, combining affordability, practicality, and sustainability in a compact electric package.
Dacia's announcement of an all-new version tailored for the UK market heralds an exciting era for electric mobility. With a keen eye on enhancing both design and equipment, Dacia aims to set a new standard for affordable electric vehicles, ensuring that drivers experience the utmost in comfort, convenience, and style.
Current Specs Abroad
Abroad the Dacia Spring is available in two models, Dacia Spring Electric 45 and the Dacia Spring Electric 65 Extreme. The biggest difference between them is the power output of the single motor.
| Model | Spring 45 | Spring 65 Extreme |
| Battery Capacity | 26.8 kWh | 26.8 kWh |
| Acceleration 0 - 100 km/h | 19.1 sec | 13.7 sec |
| Top Speed | 77 mph | 77 mph |
| Estimated Range | 137 miles | 137 miles |
Let's Get In
Upon stepping inside the Spring, you encounter a utilitarian interior characterised by cost-effective materials. Exposed hard plastics dominate the cabin, reflecting the pragmatic design approach necessary for achieving its affordability. However, certain austerity measures, such as the proliferation of blank buttons on the dashboard and limited seat adjustments, may raise eyebrows among discerning drivers.
In terms of technology, the Dacia Spring offers a modest array of features, with entry-level models equipped with a radio system and higher-tier variants boasting a 7.0-inch infotainment display, while including built-in satellite navigation is a welcome surprise.
Despite its compact dimensions, the Dacia Spring surprises with its respectable interior space, particularly in terms of headroom and boot capacity. With 290 litres of storage space, it outperforms its rivals in the city-focused EV segment, providing ample room for urban adventures or grocery runs.
Performance-wise, the Spring delivers adequate power for urban commuting, courtesy of its single electric motor offering either 45hp or 65hp. While acceleration figures may not dazzle on paper, the Spring excels in manoeuvrability, boasting impressive visibility and soft suspension perfect for city driving here in the UK.
As Dacia endeavours to fulfil its promise of delivering the UK's most affordable electric car, the Spring stands poised to capture the attention of budget-conscious consumers. Its blend of affordability, usability, and eco-friendliness makes it a contender worthy of consideration in the burgeoning electric car market.
